Our Sculptures by the Sea adventure
Three of our clients - Nikita, Jake and Elyce - participated in the volunteer programme at Sculptures by the Sea again this year. They were invited to choose a sculpture each, learn about it and share their thoughts with visitors to the exhibition as they delivered their own guided tours.

Tomago Aluminium says no to violence
Tomago Aluminium ran not one, but two White Ribbon Days recently to highlight the issue of domestic violence, asking staff to pledge to say no to violence. They raised $740 and donated this money to our Staying Home Leaving Violence (SHLV) program to assist women and children escaping domestic and family violence.
Safe Homes
Domestic violence is on the rise across the Central Coast. Safe Homes is a free service for all victims of domestic and family violence – males, females and children. It also assists men who wish to change their behaviour and become better fathers.
Caring Dads
Some men have attitudes and behaviours towards their partners and family members which have a detrimental impact on their families and children. Caring Dads is a group program for men who want to improve their parenting and be better fathers.
